Because they don't know any better.
Because they don't read the EULA.
Because they've been hypnotised by mass marketing.
Because they don't care and don't want to be held accountable - they
just want to play with or use what they're given and then in the end
when they've been fsck'ed over it, then they play blame game.
People, in general, are stupid.
This is how Microsoft, and even before them, IBM got to be where they
are now. Microsoft really don't give a rat's ass if something works,
they only care that they're marketing it the right way and forcing the
IT world to change. Causing the IT world into a constant upgrade cycle
causes the public to forget some of the basic issues that plague the
software in the first place.
